Chumukedima Town Council (CTC) has declared the entire stretch of the National Highway-29 under Chumukedima town as a “No litter Zone” in the interest of public service, health and safety.
In an order, CTC administrator Seyiekhrietuo Solo cautioned that anyone found littering or discarding/disposing waste in an improper fashion would be penalized an amount of Rs.1000 or called for mandatory “Community Service” in lieu of the penalties so prescribed. CTC stated that implementation of the order would be carried out through constant monitoring/checking by ‘anti-litter squads” headed by CTC inspectors.
CTC said the current pandemic, which has been an eye opener for all citizens of the town, has reminded that cleanliness and hygiene were biggest protection against all kinds of diseases.
